ICONA Residence: site studies begin in New Cairo
Before anything is drawn, the team maps the sun, the breeze and the neighbours of the plot.
Work on ICONA Residence starts where every ICONA project starts: on the site itself. Over the coming weeks the team records how the sun crosses the plot through the year, where the breeze comes from, and what is planned around it.
Those studies decide where the water garden runs, which way the living rooms face and how tall each building can be without shading its neighbour.
